Ok. Manufacturers not helping with the "on the edge" overclocks in that regard.Quote:

The chip may respond better to lower voltage at certain clocks but will cap out at the same frequency as the others no matter what voltage you use.Quote:

Who has hit 3GHz on 1.375v Prime stable? I dont see any on the chart.Quote:

i believe repo has, and there are a couple guys on other forums that have. and you don't see any on what chart?
yea, repo has 2hr prime stable 3ghz @ 1.375
my chip boots into windows 3ghz @ 1.35, but i can't keep the temps low enough to stability test it.
Yeah i believe that was on his 0608MPMW and unless your looking at a different screenshot then i am it says 1.375v in CPU-Z which would mean his actual vCore is at 1.4v or a little higher. I'm sitting at 1.4v actual right now and CPU-Z is saying 1.360v.Quote:

and if you're talking about the "chart" on the first post, there are no results on there because i haven't put them on there. they will be on the next update.
It will differ from board to board because of the different motherboard sensors but it usually always reports low on the DFI NF4 boards from what i've seen. Its usually .025-.04v for me on my Expert board. If you will take a DMM and measure the vCore on a DFI board it should be near exact what you set in the BIOS and reporting a little lower then that by the sensors. I have the vCore set to 1.4v right now without special and its reporting 1.360v in CPU-Z.Quote:

I lost another img where I did prime for 32 hours on 2.5ghz, same settings using SP2004.
I tried 2.6, and that took 1.475 volts to stabilize, but no screenie cuz I wanted to keep going.
2.66 ghz took up to 1.55 volts for prime stable. Temps were around 55, so I gave up.
Cooling: XP-120 + Panaflo.
Core 0 was very weak.
I'm now testing a 0551 UPMW I got from Monarch today. What are you guys getting from Monarch ATM? (Opteron 170). I know 610s are coming in for 165s, but what about for 170s? Was I just the unlucky few that got sent a 0551 while everyone else is getting 610s?
So far 2.5ghz is prime stable at 1.35... will keep going and will post screenies
could have told you that before you even started :p:Quote:

Perhaps its a typo, ccb1e 0608mpmw exists.Quote:

It may be a better chip because of the CCB1E stepping but for the most part the 0607MPMW chips have overclocked poorly.Quote:

if you want to run phase i would try and find a CCBWE 0550UPMW. but to be honest you'll probably only get 80-100 more mhz out of a CCBWE 0550UPMW on phase, than a CCBBE or CCB1E on water. i'd just put the CCB1E on water, and save your phase for conroe

Hello.
Today I got a opty 165 with stepping CCBBE 0615EPMW (the opty in my signature is the old 0550). At the moment I'm testing it, but I could prime at 2800 MHz with default volt(1,34) in 1h 30min before I had to test a littlebit higher. To boot at 2900MHz I needed 1,37v and 1,40v to get prime to run (didn't try for long).
http://home.no/erikkjos/2900MHz.JPG
At the moment I'm priming at 2945@1,44v. Don't know for how long.
so i guess the 0615EPMW arent performing as well as the 0610DPMWs? or am i mistaken?
I need a qick recommendation, I'm gonna move my 170 over to my q-pack and put it on air. Its already proven 2.8ghz 1.4v on water so I figure I'll get 2.8ghz 1.475vcore on air. Now what stepping should I grab to reach the same or better results on water? I'm only looking @ 165's & my board is stable @ High HTT's. CCBBE 0610DPMW (904), CCB1E 0608MPMW or CCB1E 0609FPAW?
A new Stepping has arrived in Germany.
X2 3800
LCBIE0618EPMW
Z937519E60XXX
Two results are available.
One is up to 2850 Dualprimestable.
The other Benchstable up to 3100Mhz.
But of the lastone the Wafercharge is unknown.
Some guys are waiting for other 0618EPMWs.
CCBBE 0610DPMW 904 or CCB1E 0608MPMWQuote:

Need some help quickly guys.
Im about to buy a 165 and the stepping is:
CCBBE 0610DPMW
Is this a good one?
:)
0608MPMW, the one i had did 3.1 stable on water @51c load 1.56v. The chip is as good as the one in my sig, just the IHS limited it.Quote:

So I should be able to get 2.8Ghz ok you think?Quote:

i'm pretty sure you have to change the voltage on the gt's considered they are basically undervolted gtx's. mine is at 525 and can't go any further without the volt mod.Quote:

It´s important to have the 904!!Than it will perform good.
Has anyone seen a X2 3800+ CCB1E 0608BPMW? It's a 165, with half cache at 2.0ghz. It's identical to the CCB1e 0608MPMWs. I really want to buy one to replace my 165. Even though mine does 3Ghz at 1.45v, I miss the 10x multi sooo much.Quote:

its all good. i'll throw it on ebay and call it an ultra rare gem once i get my CCBBE :D
i wonder if AMD is making CCBBE 170's. wouldnt that be wonderful.
can you guys point to me which online stores are shipping out the good steppings?
i just got from newegg 165 CCB1E 0609 which is more than awesome
2.4Ghz @ 1.15V using stock cooling
also many reviews from users @ newegg statedd that they also got the 0609
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819103588
Managed to get it stable, but had to up the VCOre .Problem here is the temp- I am going to mount a better pump and a larger water reservoir.
BTW, all that stepping hunt -never heard about it at Intel - some Intels that I had were better , some worse, but never in particular series.
Looks that maybe Intel has got a more consistent manufacturing process :p:

my friend ordered from newegg like on thursday and he got the 0551 stepping which is not good. so i dont know about newegg.
Any info on the voltages needed for these?Quote:

Next Week i will know more.
Heres an Link to a OC List. Luftgekühlt=Aircooling

http://www.forumdeluxx.de/forum/showthread.php?t=204404 Q
Hi guys, are there some memory or bios settings that are needed to get 2.9- 3ghz. Like async latency or something? I can't seem to get over 2.8ghz on any divider using tccd or bh'5 1gb kits. Taking the voltage up to 1.55 doesn't help either. My prime temps are 41-46'c depending on vcore so I don't think its heat. And I'm on water as well. Any input would be appreciated.
Damn..I want 165 like that too. :slobber:Quote:

The guy I bought my new 0610 from told me the batch number is: 1434904C60777 so it sounds like I have a winner. It should be here in a few days, I can't wait.
Testing an Opty 165 CCB1E 0609FPMW I got from Monarch a couple of weeks ago...haven't tried higher yet
http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g1...th_2700mhz.jpg
i updated the database. back up to 63 entries. lots of excellent OC's. i saw a couple of updates this weekend form users with avoid steppings that finally got their chips up to 2600-2700! :woot:
i fixed a bunch of typo's, i know the incorrect date is still there but i'm waiting on a reply from Grinch.
this weekend i finally got my 0615 up to 3006mhz on 1.475v. high temps caused core 0 to fail though. i need some h2o and a dfi. :stick:
My stepping is:Quote:

Should arrive this week from the States. :woot:
so outta the long line which is hte batch number?
and which are hte good batch numbers?
For the database... How many hours of prime is considered as prime stable?

The stepping CCBBE 0615EPMW is not to bad.
I could run prime for 53 min before it stopped. With some tweaking I belive it could get stable for much longer.

How long did it last? That's still awesome for a bad motherboard and high temps :eek: Can't wait to play with mine :cheers:Quote:

with your setup Repo i'm sure you can hit 3+ on 1.45 or lower.
I just got my stuff in today...a few moments ago. I got the cpu, and it's a CCBWE 0551 UPMW. >:O
I think this one is gonna go on ebay then.
man that sucks. i'd try it out first, see if you can get 2700 stable, it will make it more valuable if you have proof of it doing 2700 stable.Quote:

Pinnacle: You are right, I won't...it's going straight to ebay. Damn 170's. :(
um... why? most 0551's have hit 2600 or higher. so i would say he has a good chance of hitting 2700 or higher. with those speeds it makes it very marketable on ebay.Quote:

I am so sad, i'm drowning myself in philly cheese steaks. haha.
I will however try again with another one...if only someone could tell me where the good steppings are.
why don't you buy from someone on the forums.... like say itznfb :rolleyes:Quote:

What 170 stepping? If you're talking about 0551 it sucks. You'd be much better off with a 0615EPMW 165.. don't know why anyone would get a 170 when you have a choice of 0609 or 0615 165's from 2 different retailers :slap:
Thats exactly it. :(Quote:

You can run 312x9 with a 165 with a 180 divider and it will put the RAM at exactly 280.8MHz. Performance would be no different than 1:1 with a 170 (except for the 8/0.8 extra mhz you get with the 165 :rolleyes: )
Tis a tough choice here bro.Quote:

Haven't heard of anything good since 0550VPMW (back when it was worth buying a 170 since they did better than 165's). Maybe that's because no one buys them though :confused:
